Using Your Dishwasher

The electricity and water
connections of the dishwater must be
in compliance with the instructions in
this booklet.

Filling the dishwasher salt

Only use special dishwasher salt in
your appliance.The manufacturer is not
liable for damage resulting from the
use of the wrong type of salt.

Please ask your local town council for
the nearest collection point.

To avoid possible dangers, disable
your waste appliance prior to
discarding it. Pull the mains plug and
cut the power cord. Disable any door
locks.

Use Diswasher salt only. Moderate or
coarse grained and easily soluble salts
are recommended. Don’t use table
salt, or any other type, these types of
salt do not dissolve in water easily and
will damage the softening device.

Remove the lower basket from the
appliance.

Open the screw-in cap of the salt
container by turning it counter
clockwise (fig. A,B).

 Pour the salt into the container

with the aid of the salt funnel
provided (Fig. D).

 Pour in enough salt to fill the

container. The container holds
approx. 2 kg.

 To speed up the rate of dissolution

of salt in water, stir it with a spoon.

 Close the cap tightly.

 Begin a washing program

immediately after filling the salt
container. The washing program
prevents damage to the appliance
which may be caused by any
spilled salt solution. After the
first washing cycle, the salt level
indicator light will go out.

Depending on the particle sizes of
different salt brands in the market,
tablet properties and water hardness,
dissolution of the salt in water may take
a couple of hours.

So, the salt indicator continues lighting
for a while after filling salt into the
machine. (For models with a salt
indicator)

Filling the Rinse Aid
Dispenser

Rinse aids allow washing water to
rinse off more cleanly and prevent
watermarks or streaks on the dishes.
Only use rinse aid designed for use in
dishwashers.

If you use “2 in 1” or “3 in 1“
detergents / tablets, you do not need
an additional rinse aid.

Open the rinse aid dispenser by
pressing the locking lever (B)

Carefully pour in rinse aid to the MAX
mark. Close the lid until it clicks (3).

Carefully wipe off spilled rinse aid.
Excessive rinse aid causes excessive
foam formation, which may hinder
cleaning.

Set the dose of rinse aid

The dose of rinse aid to be used can
be set by means of the dispenser
regulator (between levels 1 and 6) (4).
Your appliance is pre-set at the factory
to level 3.

Only change the setting if the following
applies after washing:

Filling the Detergent
Dispenser

Only use detergents formulated for

use in dishwashers.

 Watermarks are visible on the

dishes: Set dosage higher

 Streaks are visible on the dishes:

Set dosage lower

Do not put solvents into the
washing compartment; there is the risk
of explosion!

Open the detergent container by
pushing the locking lever to the right
(A).

The lines on the inside of the detergent
container will help you measure the
correct amount of detergent.

11

GB

The detergent container holds a total of
40 cm³ of detergent (1).

When the dishwasher is fully loaded
and the dishes are very dirty, we
recommend filling the detergent
container up to the 25 cm³ mark. When
the dishes are less dirty, it is generally
sufficient to fill the detergent up to the
15 cm³ mark.

If your dishes have been in the
dishwasher for some time without
being washed, you should also fill the
small detergent container up to the line
(2).

The programme table shows the
amounts of detergent required for the
different wash programmes.

These may differ according to how dirty
the dishes are and the water hardness
in your location.

Detergent

Please use detergents produced
specially for the dishwashers in your
machine.

Keep the opened detergent
packages in a cool and dry place
where children can not reach.

We recommend you not to use
detergents that contain chlorine and
phosphate as they are harmful for the
environment. Detergents that contain
enzymes are effective in temperatures
below 50 °C and help to obtain the
same washing efficiency as obtained at
higher temperatures.

Put the detergent into the detergent
dispenser just before operating the
machine.

Please contact the manufacturer to
get detailed information about the
detergent you are using.

Always use powder detergents in
short programs without pre-washing.
Fill in the powder detergent into the
compartment nr. 2 with a grid cover as
shown in the picture and close the
detergent box lid. When completely
full, this compartment will contain 6 g
of powder detergent.

Do not use tablet detergents in short
programs since the solubility of them
changes depending on the temperature
and time.

In programs with pre-washing and high
temperature, in which you may use
tablet detergents, make sure that the
detergent box lid is closed firmly.

12

GB

Excessive usage of powder detergents
can cause the detergent not dissolve
completely and can also cause
scratches on the glassware.

Contact the detergent producer if your
dishes are wet and/or if you notice lime
spots particularly on your glasses after
the washing program is over.

Multipurpose Detergents

The best washing results in
dishwashers is obtained by using
detergent, rinse aid and water
softening salt individually.

New products of the detergent
producers what they call as
“Multipurpose Detergent” can act as
water softening salt and/or rinse aid
in addition to acting as a detergent.
Some types of these detergents can
also contain special-purpose washing
chemicals such as glass and stainless
steel protectors.

Multipurpose detergents commonly
found in the market:

2in1: Those contain detergent, rinse
aid or water softening salt.
3in1: Those contain detergent, rinse
aid and water softening salt.
4in1: Those containing glass protectors
in addition to detergent, rinse aid and
water softening salt.
5in1: Those containing glass and
stainless steel protectors in addition
to detergent, rinse aid and water
softening salt.

Multipurpose detergents give satisfying
results only under certain usage
conditions. Observe the instructions
of the detergent manufacturer on the
package when using such detergents.

When you give up using such
detergents:

Make sure that salt and rinse aid
compartments are full.

Set the water hardness to its highest
degree and perform an empty run.

After the empty washing review the
user manual and readjust the water
hardness level so as to suit your water
supply.

Make the appropriate rinse aid
settings.

Depending on the model, salt indicator
and/or rinse aid indicator should be
enabled again if they are disabled
before.

Loading the dishwasher

General:

Before you load the dishwasher with
dishes

 Remove coarse food leftovers
 Place all containers such as

cups, glasses and pots into the
machine with the opening facing
downwards (so that no water can
collect)

 Dishes and cutlery may not be

placed above each other

 Glasses may not touch
